On finding bipartisanship: “I’ve never really had my faith be channeled through politics. It’s been a very rich season of leveraging gifts of hospitality and the arts, frankly, and other sort of spirits of invitation in to our home, and friendship, and convening people together who would not meet otherwise because they may be very politically divided.”

Anne’s attributes for being in the world:

Personalism: “seeing every person you encounter in his or her full depth.”

Concreteness: “find a way of being broken open that’s not just head, that’s like whole person.”

Hospitality: “trying to be open to every person and deeply listening and with sort of a posture of potential embrace.”
